Yikes, I am creating a component in ActionScript and adding an HBOX to it as a child. I want that hbox to fill 90% of the width of "this".
I see on this page http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00000518.html a comment about "percentHeight, percentWidth In MXML tags only..." Come on, really? This seems a very troubling shortcoming. I just know one of you gurus has figured out a simple fix for this, right?
